MANCHESTER, Conn. (WTNH) -- Friday marked the two year anniversary of the killings inside Hartford Distributors.

On August 3, 2010 Omar Thornton opened fire inside Hartford Distributors and killed eight of his co-workers. He also took his own life.

Shortly before the shooting, Thornton's bosses had spoke to him about allegations he was stealing.

A memorial for the victims now sits next to Hartford Distributors.
